Legends of the Dark Knight #1 2021 Marquez Variant First Printing NM

Legends of the Dark Knight #1 2021 is the debut issue of DC Comics’ modern relaunch of the classic anthology series. Originally released as a digital-first comic on April 2, 2021, and later in print, the series serves as a platform for legendary creators and rising stars to tell standalone Batman stories outside of core continuity.

Plot Overview

The issue kicks off a multi-part story arc titled "Bad Night, Good Knight". The plot centers on a dangerous new antagonist known as the Gas Mask Killer, who has arrived in Gotham City to sell deadly, military-grade chemicals.

Batman must hunt down this new supplier before Gotham’s most notorious villains—including The Joker, Mr. Freeze, and The Penguin—can get their hands on the toxins and trigger an all-out turf war.
